Chris de Burgh releases his new album
“The Storyman” on 9th October 2006 through Edel
Records. The CD contains 12 new tracks and to tie in with the
theme of “The Storyman” Chris
has written a short story to accompany each song. These stories
set the scene and expand upon the lyrics with detail, colour and
atmosphere.
The initial shipment of “The Storyman”
is available as a special limited edition digipack containing 2
books – one The Stories behind the songs and the other The Lyrics.
The album is produced by Chris Porter and Chris de Burgh.

Guests on the album include Kristyna Myles winner of the BBC
Busker of the Year competition, who is featured on “Raging Storm,”
the London Russian Choir who sing on “Leningrad”, while the
three-piece African vocal group The Mahotella Queens feature on
‘One World’ and ‘Spirit’. On “The Mirror of The Soul” Chris – a
former pupil himself – is joined by The Marlborough College
Chamber Choir. Egyptian Artist Hani Hussein features on ‘My
Father’s Eyes’. Six of the album's songs were recorded live in
session with 90 members of The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, at
London's legendary Abbey Road studios.
